The Post (out Jan 11) looks at what went on behind the scenes before The Washington Post made the decision to publish classified military documents in 1971 that showed the government had been lying about its involvement in the Vietnam War. Director Steven Spielberg pushes its themes too strongly but it's still a fascinating true story with as much relevance today. Grade: B+.
